Actor Park Eunbin recounted how she suffered from the overwhelming amount of lines in "Woo Young-woo."
On the 14th, Netflix Korea's official channel uploaded a video titled [Hong.Gun.Dae] Eunbin, are you really dead after just the first episode? | Came to promote The Wonder Fools.
That day Yoo Byungjae asked Park Eunbin, "How is memorizing scripts now? Are you good at it?" and Park Eunbin said, "I still thought I wasn't bad at it, but during 'Woo Young-woo' it was just too..."
In the ENA drama Extraordinary Attorney Woo, in which Park Eunbin played Woo Young-woo, a rookie lawyer who has both a genius mind and is on the autism spectrum, Park Eunbin recalled the overwhelming amount of lines in the series and said she suffered aftereffects, saying, "After going through that, I sometimes think my brain might have gotten a bit worse."
Yoo Byungjae said he could relate, saying, "People tend to avoid professional jobs. I heard that those who have been doctors or lawyers once have so many lines," and Park Eunbin replied, "That's right. So the good thing afterward was the feeling of 'this amount of lines? I can memorize that quickly.'"
She continued, "I used to rarely get NGs. There was hardly ever a need for them. But while doing 'Woo Young-woo,' it was a process of continually lowering my expectations of myself. There was just so much. Even if I messed up, it's like, 'Well, that's just me,' you know? But looking back now, there were so many moments when I wondered, 'How did I manage that?'"
Yoo Byungjae wondered, "During 'Woo Young-woo,' instead of A4 script pages, could a single line in the shooting script have been several pages?" and Park Eunbin said, "There were really many lines that exceeded 15 or 20 pages in one scene. I started filming just two weeks after finishing Yeonmo, so I realistically had almost no time to prepare, and even when there were always many lines, there can be scenes that require more attention. If I had been able to memorize the courtroom scenes where I had to recite continuously in advance, it would have been better, but I didn't even have that time," she said, describing the situation at the time.
He said, "I lived like a mayfly, memorizing only the next day's lines. But doing that produced six or seven A4 pages every day. In the end, because I was the only one on set who could do that, I worked on the project with a heavy sense of responsibility," he revealed, drawing admiration.
